To remove values from Mule application A’s Object Store v2, Mule application B can use Object Store v2 REST API. This API allows performing operations on Object Store v2 resources using HTTP methods, such as GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE. Mule application B can use the DELETE method to remove values from Mule application A’s Object Store v2 by specifying the object store ID and the key of the value to delete.

To encrypt the data before sending it to the backend application using PGP encryption, the application needs the public key from the backend service. PGP encryption uses a public-key cryptography system, which means that each party has a pair of keys: a public key and a private key. The public key is used to encrypt data, and the private key is used to decrypt data. Therefore, to encrypt data for a specific recipient (the backend service), the application needs to use the recipient’s public key. The recipient can then use its own private key to decrypt the data.

When working with correlation IDs, the HTTP Listener generates correlation IDs unless a correlation ID is received in the HTTP request. In that case, it propagates the received correlation ID throughout the flow execution. Correlation IDs are used to track events across different flows or applications.

To achieve a publish/subscribe model using Anypoint MQ, where each system receives the same gate change notification event, the developer should publish the gate change notification to an Anypoint MQ exchange, create different Anypoint MQ queues meant for each of the other subscribing systems, and bind the exchange with each of the queues. An exchange is a message routing agent that can send messages to different queues based on predefined criteria. By binding an exchange with multiple queues, each queue receives a copy of every message sent to that exchange. Therefore, each system can subscribe to its own queue and receive every gate change notification event. References: https://docs.mulesoft.com/anypoint-mq/3.x/anypoint-mq-exchanges

To invoke multiple HTTP APIs in parallel and roll back failed requests in sequence, the developer should use a Scatter-Gather router as a central Saga orchestrator for all API requests with compensating actions for failing routes. A Scatter-Gather router executes multiple routes concurrently and aggregates the results. A Saga orchestrator coordinates a series of actions across different services and handles failures by executing compensating actions. Therefore, using a Scatter-Gather router as a Saga orchestrator allows invoking multiple HTTP APIs in parallel and rolling back any failed requests in sequence.

When using XML SDK for creating custom message processors, all operations are public by default and can be used by any Mule application that imports them. There is no way to make an operation private or protected in XML SDK. References: https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-sdk/1.1/xml-sdk#operations

To give a partial successful response in case the United Airlines API returns with a timeout, the developer should add a Scatter-Gather component inside a Try scope, and set the payload to a default value ‘Error’ inside the error handler using the On Error Continue scope. A Scatter-Gather component allows sending multiple requests concurrently and aggregating the responses into an array. A Try scope allows handling errors that occur within it using an error handler. An On Error Continue scope allows continuing the flow execution after handling an error. Therefore, by using these components, the developer can send requests to both APIs in parallel, handle any timeout errors from United Airlines API, and return a partial response with a default value for that API.

To validate the data before posting to the target system, the developer should add the JSON module dependency and add the validate-schema operation in the flow, configured to reference the schema. The JSON module provides a validate-schema operation that validates a JSON payload against a JSON schema and throws an error if the payload is invalid. References: https://docs.mulesoft.com/json-module/1.1/json-validate-schema

Based on the configuration below, when a HTTP request arrives at the Mule application’s endpoint, the execution order will be A1, B1, F1, B2, A2. This is because policies are executed before and after the API implementation flow according to their order attribute. Policy A has order 1, which means it is executed first before Policy B, which has order 2. The flow is executed after both policies are executed before the flow. Then, Policy B is executed after the flow before Policy A is executed after the flow. References: https://docs.mulesoft.com/api-manager/2.x/policies-policy-order

To test that the payment API is working in production, the developer should create a health check endpoint that listens on a separate port and uses a separate HTTP Listener configuration from the API. This way, the developer can isolate the health check endpoint from the API traffic and avoid affecting the performance or availability of the API. The health check endpoint should return a simple response that indicates the status of the API, such as OK or ERROR. References: https://docs.mulesoft.com/api-functional-monitoring/afm-create-monitor#create-a-monitor

 Based on the code snippet, schema.json file, and payload below, the outcome of the given code snippet when a request is sent with the payload is that the Mule flow will throw the exception ‘JSON:SCHEMA_NOT_HONOURED’. This is because the payload does not conform to the schema.json file, which specifies that age must be a number greater than or equal to zero. The payload has age as a string with a negative value, which violates the schema. Therefore, the validate-schema operation throws an error with type ‘JSON:SCHEMA_NOT_HONOURED’. References: https://docs.mulesoft.com/json-module/1.1/json-validate-schema

To get response data from the external API after it completes processing, the developer should expose an HTTP callback API in Mule and register it with the external system. This way, the external API can invoke the callback API with the response data when it is ready, instead of making the Mule application wait for a long time or poll for a response repeatedly. References: https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/http-listener-ref#callback

To ensure idempotent behavior within a Mule flow that contains a subflow with a Scatter-Gather scope, the developer should ensure an error-handling flow performs corrective actions to roll back all changes if any leg of the Scatter-Gather fails. Idempotency means that multiple identical requests have the same effect as a single request. Therefore, if one of the HTTP requests inside the Scatter-Gather fails, the error-handling flow should undo any changes made by other successful requests to ensure consistency and avoid partial updates.

To develop an API that retrieves data from a hospital system using reusable Java libraries, the developer should install libraries in a local repository and refer to it in the pom.xml file. This way, the developer can use Maven to manage dependencies and invoke Java code from Mule applications using Java Module operations.

To use the OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code grant type for authentication, the HTTP Connector configuration requires the following properties: token URL, authorization URL, client ID, client secret, and local callback URL. The token URL is the endpoint of the authorization server that provides access tokens. The authorization URL is the endpoint of the authorization server that initiates the user consent flow. The client ID and client secret are the credentials of the Mule application registered with the authorization server. The local callback URL is the endpoint of the Mule application that receives the authorization code from the authorization server.
